1. The shadow of a tower standing on a level plane is found to be 50m longer when
suns elevation is 300 then when it is 600. Find the height of the tower.

3. An aeroplane when flying at a height of 3125m from the ground passes vertically
below another plane at an instant when the angle of elevation of the two planes from
the same point on the ground are 30and 60 respectively . Find the distance between
the two planes at that instant.
4. From the top of a building 60m high , the angels of depression of the top and botton
of a vertical lamp post are observed to be 30 and 60respectively. Find [i] horizontal
distance between the building and the lamp post [ii] height of the lamp post .
5. The angle of elevation of a cloud from a point 60m above a lake is 30 and the
angle of depression of the reflection of the cloud in the lake is 60 . Find the height of
the cloud from the surface of the lake.
6. A man on the deck on a ship 14m above water level, observes that the angle of
elevation of the top of a cliff is 600and the angle of depression of the base of the cliff
is 300. Calculate the distance of the cliff from the ship and the height of the cliff.
7. A window in a building is at a height of 10m above the ground . The angle of
depression of a point P on the ground from the window is 300. The angle of elevation
of the top of the building from the point P is 600 . Find the height of the building.
8. The angle of elevation of a jet fighter from a point A on the ground is 600 . After a
flight of 15 seconds, The angle of elevation changes to 30. If the jet is flying at a
speed of 720km/hr, find the constant height at which the jet is flying.
